What it is

Understanding robotic implant surgery.

Robotic (robot-guided) implant surgery uses a computerised system that follows the digital plan created from your 3D scan, helping the surgeon place implants in the precise, pre-planned position.

The aim is accuracy: guiding placement closely to the digital plan can support predictable results and may help protect nearby structures. It complements — rather than replaces — the surgeon's expertise.

Who it's for

Is it right for you?

How it works

Your treatment journey.

01

Consultation & 3D scan

A detailed assessment with CBCT imaging to plan implant positions digitally.

02

Digital surgical plan

Your plan is prepared so the guided system can follow the intended implant positions.

03

Guided placement

Implants are placed under local anaesthetic with computer guidance following the plan.

04

Restoration & aftercare

After healing, your restoration is fitted and a maintenance plan put in place.

Anatomy

How it fits together.

Schematic illustration

Computer guidance follows the digital plan to place the implant in the pre-planned position relative to the bone and nearby structures.

The honest view

Benefits & what to consider.

Benefits

  • Placement guided closely to the digital plan
  • Supports accuracy and predictable planning
  • Can help protect nearby anatomy
  • Combines technology with clinical expertise
  • Part of a fully digital workflow

What to consider

  • Guided surgery still depends on the surgeon's skill and judgement
  • Suitability is confirmed after a full assessment
  • As with any implant surgery, risks are discussed beforehand
  • Not every case requires robotic guidance — we advise honestly
  • Healing times still apply as with standard implants
Materials & technology

Built with quality materials.

Robotic guidance is built on the same digital planning and established implant systems we use throughout the practice.

FAQ

Common questions.

Is robotic implant surgery safe?

Guided implant surgery is a well-established approach that follows a careful digital plan. It supports the surgeon's accuracy; your suitability and the risks are discussed fully at your consultation.

Does a robot perform the surgery on its own?

No. The system guides placement according to the plan, but your treatment is carried out by an experienced clinician who remains in control throughout.

Is it more accurate than standard placement?

Guided placement aims to follow the digital plan very closely, which can support precision. The right approach for you depends on your individual case.

Does it cost more?

Cost depends on your overall treatment plan. We provide a clear written quote after your assessment.

Will I feel anything?

Treatment is carried out under local anaesthetic, so you should be comfortable, with normal short-term tenderness afterwards.
